Chapter 4 : If You Want

The room was very dim with a few rays of light coming from cracks in the roof, the moment I took a step forward…

A yelp of pain could be heard throughout the city.

Holding my feet, I start jumping about trying to help relieve the pain. After the pain faded, I look down to see a metal ball…?

After a few more seconds, my eyes adjusted to the dim room. Across the room lay wood, metal, and other kinds of things I don’t know. “You shouldn’t go into rooms that had a metal door and a do not disturb sign” I jump back in surprise, to find Master there leaning on the wall.

“Master can you really stop scaring me like this” I put my hand on my chest to calm down my breathing. All of a sudden, lightning comes out of his hand and touches a metal plate on the wall. Suddenly the ceiling starts to light up, “This is what I call artificial light, caused by using my lightning to charge it up. That is why there are no candles.”

“Master, what do you call it?” I look back at him, but in his hands the weapons seemed broke apart as it shot the ball.

“It is a failure, I give up. You could research this if you want, this could be your next project. Oh it is also called a A.P.R or Automatic Propelled Weapon.” He drops the APR on the floor and left.

I walk up to the weapon and look inside it. It had worked by using a power source to propel the metal balls at high speed, and the frame was used to aim and control were the metal balls went. Hmm… I’ll work on this next time, for now I shall go back.

Closing the door behind me, I rush up to my master. He was sitting in the courtyard, mediating. I could see faint lightning rushing all over him, I sat and watched him in a
